PS Vita Sale Coming To PlayStation Store

Share this post

Out of the shadows I return to announce another sale for our ever loving consumers. This time we’ve got a THREE week sale for you. What’s it about? What can you expect? Why should you care? Read on and find out.

Starting on June 13th until July 4th, we will run a sale for content compatible with PS Vita. Each week we will rotate the content, starting with digital only titles followed by adding in retail releases (that are also available through PS Store) and finally on the third week, retail and PSP/mini titles compatible with Vita.

Do you have any idea if certain third party titles (Rayman Origins!) will get a price reduction in the future weeks? Not had a reason to buy more Vita titles off the store because I’m a bit preoccupied with Motorstorm and WipEout, but thanks to this reduction I’ll get the fantastic Hustle Kings.

I agree with Sem, regarding a discount Metal Gear Solid: PW because I have pre-ordered the HD MGS and would like to own the complete collection but I don’t think both are worth it at full price.

By the way, please consider putting a half price discount on the 3rd Birthday because it’s at 15.99 on PSN, even though its on the essentials range which usually cost around 7 to 8 pounds in the store.

@#1 – Mutant Blobs is a great game, it was well worth £5.49 so it’s a steal at £3.99. I wouldn’t wait for it to become free or discounted further as it might not happen and you’d miss out on a great game.

@#18 – Reality Fighters is already on sale on the Vita store for £11.99, not under a tenner of course but I doubt it’ll go any cheaper soon

If you could get a reduction on Persona 3 portable and Trails in the Sky in the last week of this promotion, I’ll be a very, very happy man. I know they reducted the standard price recently, but still, it wouldn’t be bad to have a nice little promotion no?

(I own both on UMD, but want them on Vita as that’s the sytem I carry with me all the time)

Hi Andy, glad to see a vita sale at last. I will pick up Escape Plan and maybe something else as I’ve already got Motorstorm RC, Hustle Kings, Tales of a Blob and Super Stardust Delta but I have a few questions first.1: Will there be an extra discount for plus members?2: You mentioned Top Darts on the list, does it include the PS3 version for free as well?3: Will Plants vs. Zombies be on the sale too?

It’s great to see the Vita get some love, but a shame to see the games that are already reasonably priced go on sale when the ones that are over priced remain, well, over priced.

On a related note, are the recent price drops on Mod Nation and Everybodys Golf permanent? this is the kind of price reductions the Vita needs to get more people buying and playing and after picking up Modnation at the new price i’m planing on picking up Everybodys Golf too, there are a lot of other games i’d grab if the prices were more reasonable ;)

And will we ever see proper pricing of RidgeRacer or even the game/glorified demo (compared to every other RidgeRacer content wise) plus all DLC for €20? ;)

What I’d absolutely love to see, is some kind of massive discount on PSP digital downloads…Or maybe a code so that we can download something like 3-5 games of our choice at massive discount of 90% or so.

Why?

Because I have some great games sitting here on UMD, that I’d love to have on my Vita, but am loathed to pay for again. Some of them are £15 on the store right now, not exactly cheap for a game I already own.

Seeing as we never got a UMD trade in programme, it would be nice to see some kind of offer from Sony, for those loyal customers who bought PSPs and games for them. I used to enjoy the odd blast on Space Invaders extreme. While I can still play that on my PSP, it’s an inconvenience to keep it charged just for the occasional game.

I’ve already repurchased Pursuit Force. . I also have many more… I don’t expect to just be given them all, but some kind of offer to help get some of the most wanted ones on the Vita would surely go a long way to generate some appreciation from...

So I’m not sure how it could be done, but some kind of extreme PSP sale would be fantastic…. As also present Vita gamers with access to more gaming while they’re waiting for the next round of Vita titles to hit.
